    The document details the calculation of fault current for a power system consisting of two generators and a transformer. It first provides ratings and reactance values for the generators and transformer. It then calculates the per-unit reactance values based on a 5 MVA base. Finally, it develops a Thevenin equivalent circuit and calculates the short circuit current as 901.0803 A.

    FAULT CURRENT CALCULATION

    SLD AND SPECIFICATIONS

    G1 Ratings : 2 MVA 11 kV X = 0.169 pu

    G2 Ratings : 2 MVA 11 kV X = 0.169 pu

    T1 Ratings : 5 MVA 11000/415 V X = 0.08 pu

    CURRENT FAULT CALCULATION


    Pu base values : Sbase = 5 MVA
    Vbase = 11 kV at HV side

    Vbase = 415 V at LV side

    The subtransient reactance of the two generators to the system base is

    Therefore:
    X1 = X2 = 0.169(11000 / 11000)2(5000000/2000000) = 0.4225 pu

    The reactance of the transformer is already given on the system base, it will not change X = 0.08 pu The per-unit voltage on the low-voltage side of the transformer is Vpu = actual value / base value = 11000 / 11000 = 1 pu

    THEVENIN EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT

    Thevenin equivalent circuit: Vth = 1 pu Zth = j0.29125 pu Short circuit current (pu) Isc = Vth/Zth = 3.433476 pu Base current on the low voltage side: Ibase = 262.4396 A

    Short circuit current (A): Isc = 901.0803 A
